I used to love Lurlene McDaniel's books when I was younger. I never read this one, probably because it came out when I was too old for these books. Which is funny, as my sister pointed out, because I am now much older and reading it. haha. It was a nice way to wrap up the series, and I'm glad I got to see how it all ended. I was particularly interested in reading the book now because I am studying speech language pathology.

Here's what Cassady G. had to say about this book:
Overview: Big brother and little sister are a happy family.
This book ROCKS because: To Live Again is about a little sister and a big brother. They have a happy relationship. The reason they have a happy relationship is because the little girl almost died. The brother helped her get better with parts of his own body.

I gave the book To Live Again 5 stars, because it is a really sad book but it was also good I liked the beginning of the book because it shows her being a normal girl again and how she can live and go to school being a normal kid. She just got rid of her leukemia and she can live a normal life once again. That is why I like this book.
Clean, cute book about a girl that recovers from a stroke. My 13-year-old daughter wanted me to read it. Lots of info about stroke victims, rehabilitation, and social support for those suffering from accidents, chronic illness, strokes, etc. Includes a sweet, light romance that would be appropriate for preteens even.
I didn’t really like this book as much as the other ones. I gave it 3 stars. It wasn’t very exciting, but it was still ok. Dawn tries to live a normal life even though she is a leukemia survivor. Her idea of a life was different from the one she had to live. Her life was harder then most teenagers her age. She made it through though, and with a smile on her face.
I think that this book was the best in the Dawn rachelle Novels. It was the most inspiring :)

This was a good close to the series. I’m happy she wrote one more. I liked this series, but none of the books were 5 star books. The books are worth the read but they are sad and I know Dawn was going through a lot but she was really annoying. I recommend these books to everyone.
THAT WAS EVERY BIT AS CHEESY/DRAMATIC/TERRIBLE AS I WAS HOPING.
My 13 year old self is pleased.

This book was so sad just cause in the other series she got rid of her cancer then it came back you feel so extremly sorry for her.
Dawn suffers a stroke from complications due to the Cancer medication she's been taking all her life. Will she ever recover?
A heart-warming ending to a great story. I recommend all the Dawn Rochelle Novels, they are all beautiful tear-jerkers.

Another Dawn Rochelle novel gives me inspiration on how to persevere through life.
I read this when I went through a Lurlene McDaniel phase. Very stirring.
one of the best series
